''My Wife'' is a love song that expresses the beauty of love in Cameroon and in African communities as a whole, love has no boundaries and so we are all free to fall in love and get married to the one our hearts beat for and feel safe with despite the differences in language, color and traditions. It's just that perfect piece wrapped in a beautiful vibe that explains it all. Check it out on YouTube, also as lyrics video.
The song is produced by JN Killer Beats. Video Directed by Dr Nkeng Stephen of CPE For Africa. Story by Mr Fru of Glass Plannet, @kowehofficial and Dr Nkeng Stephens.
Performed & composed by D Clan Koweh and Akeva

"AKEVA - bisher bekannt als MAYEMBÉ MALAYIKA's Debutalbum „Pan-African Soul“ ist eine gut produzierte und äußerst intensive Verschmelzung von Soul, Reggae und Afrobeats. Mit einem Sound, der sowohl westliche als auch afrikanische Hörer anspricht, gehen die Songs kunstvoll ineinander über. Titel wie 'African Soul', 'Africanization' oder ihre Single 'Good Things Come Around' klingen wie spirituelle Gute-Laune-Lieder - doch gleichzeitig sind sie ein Weckruf für den Soul." *Presse: Tagblatt & Interkultur (Jürgen Spiess)
